Support for "Draft" State in {{pullRequest.state}} Smart Value for GitHub Pull Requests

[Tracy Powell]

Currently, the {{pullRequest.state}} smart value in Jira automation only returns "Open", "Merged", or "Declined" for pull requests. It does not distinguish when a GitHub pull request is in a "Draft" state.

It would be very helpful if the smart value could return "Draft" when a GitHub PR is in draft mode. This would allow teams to automate actions or notifications based on whether a pull request is ready for review or still being worked on as a draft.

Use Case:

• Triggering different automation rules or notifications for draft vs. non-draft pull requests.
• Improving workflow clarity for teams using GitHub and Jira together.
